Italian justice wants to see Robinho's name included in the “Interpol red list”. He was ultimately convicted on Thursday of sexual rape.
The intention was confirmed by the director general of international relations and judicial cooperation of the Italian Ministry of Justice, Stefano Opilio, this Thursday, in statements made to the Globoesporte.
“This is not about Robinho, a well-known player. This is an everyday activity, which we do hundreds of times a day. There are many cases like his”, explained the person responsible, who will extend the request to Ricardo Falco, a friend of the player, who was also convicted.
The issuance of the provisional arrest request that will be made by the Milan Attorney General's Office must be available within 29 days.
The basis of this process is the fact that Brazil does not consider any agreement with the Italian justice system for the deportation of national citizens, which means that, at this time, the 37-year-old striker, who lives in Santos, will not serve his sentence.
However, if this request is accepted, a warrant will be issued. international detention against Robinho in a total of 195 countries, including Brazil, meaning he could be detained by the country's national authorities.
The case dates back to 2013 when the player represented AC Milan. The court found that he raped a woman of Albanian nationality, then aged 23, along with five other people, including his friend, Ricardo Falco.
